On this night... 23 years ago, 246 people went to sleep in preparation for their morning flights. 2,606 people went to sleep in preparation for work in the morning. 343 firefighters went to sleep in preparation for their morning shift. 60 police officers went to sleep in preparation for morning patrol. 8 paramedics went to sleep in preparation for the morning shift of saving lives. None of them saw past 10:00am Sept 11, 2001. In one single moment life may never be the same. As you live and enjoy the breaths you take today and tonight before you go to sleep in preparation for your life tomorrow, kiss the ones you love, snuggle a little tighter, and never take one second of your life for granted.โ
May We Never Forget ๐บ๐ธ๐บ๐ธ๐บ๐ธ
โAnd let us not forget the heroes of the September 11, 2012 attacks on the U.S. compound in Benghazi, Libya. On this 12th anniversary, we honor the fallen and remember the bravery of the Americans who stood in defense of the innocent to fight the evil surrounding them. During this tragic night, when all hope seemed to be lost, several brave Americans who were providing security detail to this U.S. compound, courageously chose to fight off the insurgents storming the area. Easily outnumbered, these Americans displayed valor by never giving up or letting evil prevail. โ
